dc.description.abstract | Puger sub-district is categorized as a tsunami-prone area because of its location in the
South Coast, directly facing the Indian Ocean, which is the meeting point for two active tectonic
plates. The active plate zone is prone to causing earthquakes that raise tsunamis. This article will
describe the tsunami hazard and vulnerability level in Puger sub-district using the Geographic
Information System (GIS) application. The method in this study uses a weighted overlay method.
The weighting method is carried out to determine the level of tsunami hazard and vulnerability
by following the weighting criteria in previous studies. Physical vulnerability criteria include
land elevation, slope, beach type, land use, coastline distance, and rivers. The tsunami hazard
level is determined based on the tsunami run-up map from previous studies. Based on the results
of the risk mapping, it was found that there were five risk categories in Puger sub-district, namely
the very low level (13.90 Ha), low level (271.99 Ha), medium level (7133.25 Ha), high level
(644.22 Ha), and very high level (23.29 Ha). | en_US |
